The United Nations Committee against Torture has called on Israel to establish an independent commission to investigate allegations of torture and ill-treatment of Palestinians amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza. The committee expressed deep concern over reports suggesting a widespread and organized policy of torture, including severe beatings, electrocution, and sexual violence. While condemning the attacks on Israel by Hamas and other groups, the committee also criticized Israel's response as disproportionate and warned of the risk of cruel living conditions for Palestinians. Israeli officials have rejected the allegations, maintaining their commitment to international obligations and moral values.
